Inside the schemes that have made the Saints’ offense the talk of the NFL

De♌rek Carr and Alvin Kamara are fueling the NFL’s second-highest scoring offense.

You are forgiven if you read that senꦑtence and then double-checked your calendar to make sure you didn’t wake up in 2017.

Actually, if you have seen the Sa🦩ints play in 2024, you m🧸ight even have mistakenly thought that you time-traveled back earlier into the 21st century, to a time of traditional offensive formations.

The Saints made a bold offseason move by firing Drew Brees-approved Pete Carmichael — the NFL’s longest-tenured offensive coo🐭rdinator — after 15 seasons and replacing him with Klint Kubiak, the latest mind plucked off of 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan’s bountiful tree. Kubiak, who was the Vikings offensive coordinator in 2021 and a part of the Nathaniel Hackett failure with the Broncos in 2022, spent last season as pass-game coordinator for the 49ers.
